Morocco’s monarch Mohammed VI is to avoid an upcoming summit of African leaders as it is also to be joined by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

The meeting of the intergovernmental body of Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) is to take place in Liberia on Sunday, The Jerusalem Post reported on Saturday.

The king, whose country does not have diplomatic ties with Israel, had originally accepted an invite to the summit, but had second thoughts after finding out about the unwonted invitation forwarded to the Israeli premier.
